why I love UM fans

[kired]

As I was walking out today, I overheard a conversation between a couple of UM fans. And they were being 100% dead serious... said: <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">"Our big rivalry game is LSU. It's hard to get up for this game after playing them last week."</span>

I didn't hear the rest of the conversation too clearly, but sounded like they were complaining about having to play the egg bowl after the LSU game. Basically saying it was a trap game because they had to play LSU the week before. I believe these guys have honestly convinced themselves LSU is a bigger rival than we are.

To that I would ask UM fans... what hurts worse - losing to LSU or us? There's a reason my brothers won't speak to me for the next week...

They are absolutely distraught over this loss. It was hilarious to look at the somber faces after the game. They could not look you in the eye.

They want so bad to be rivals with the great LSU, but in all actuality they cannot beat cow college!

I read an interesting article this week about the Jackie Sherrill - Billy Brewer rivalry. In it Brewer was quoted as saying that going back to when he played, the LSU game was always a big game, but there was never any question that the MSU game was always the biggest rivalry game.

...which is fine. I read two articles in the paper this week that talked about Khayat having special meetings with every head coach before their first egg bowl to talk about how important it was to them. So, again, that **** is ludicrous. But who cares if they think that?
